BRIDGES: Tonchi McIntosh

CD Released 2001

Tonchi and friends travelled down to Killarney, Warrnambool, South West Victoria for three weeks of recording, swimming, singing and inspiration.

The Belfast dunes at Killarney and an old fisherman's cottage surrounded by the black lava rocks, reefs, coastal marshes, black swans and water birds provided the ideal setting for the creation of Tonchi's debut album titled 'Bridges'.

If you listen carefully you can hear the rain on the homestead's tin roof, various native birds and a black crow that sat near the window and sang as we recorded the vocal track for the title track 'Bridges'.

Producer Shane Howard teamed up with his long term recording partner, sound engineer exraordinaire Michael Letho, to create the album. Local Guditjimura musicians Andy Alberts, Robbie Bundall and David Arden also joined in. Their timely arrivals on the scene ensured a good spirit and an earthy grounding in the local aboriginal reality.

Shane continued working on the tracks at his home studio, and the final mixing and mastering was done at Michael Lethos 'Front Room' studios in Melbourne in 2001. The album was released in NSW in late 2001 and in Melbourne and VIC in 2002.
